How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it. For a rural address like Navestock Heath, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the wood floor repair comes with us in one trip.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Signs you need wood floor repair in Navestock Heath

  • Burns

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Navestock Heath questions

My house in Navestock Heath is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Generally, yes. Older floors are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us photos and we will tell you what’s possible.

Will you travel to Navestock Heath?

Yes, villages and hamlets are part of our area, at no extra charge.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Repair or replace in Navestock Heath?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. In an older home in a village like Navestock Heath, replacing a floor can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.

Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
